al-Zarqawi Claims Responsibility For Hurricane Katrina...

al-Zarqawi, al Qaeda's leader in Iraq claims that Hurricane Katrina was an answer to their prayers:

al-Zarqawi, said, "I believe the devastating hurricane that hit the United States occurred because people in Iraq or Afghanistan -- maybe a mother who had lost her son or a son whose parents were killed or a woman who was raped -- were praying for God and God accepted their prayers."

only problem with that statement is...if a woman was raped...it was probably by the former Taliban leadership in Afghanistan or one of Saddam's sons...
